  No cover; but SPM File No. 310-973. [this file number appears to be a general, wide-ranging category, judging from the description of other items seen so far with the same number.] Some good stuff, i.e., letter of 4/11/30 from Titcomb to Sproule, noting his meeting that afternoon with Mexican President Ortiz Rubio, regarding what appears to have been an interminable quest by the SPM to successfully claim moneys from the government, in this case to the tune of $10 million pesos. "The President scrutinized these figures very carefully and was much interested. ...saying that the Budget was prepared by his predecessor... and promised further that for 1931, the Budget would carry some amount for the liquidation of the government's obligations to the company. At this point, I stated that the Company would consider at any time any real offer of compromise." Also see, for example, earlier pink telegram dated 11/18/29 to SP Pres. Hale Holden, from Paul Shoup, about discussion had with Titcomb that morning by phone. Notes that Rubio had been elected that day by overwhelming majority. Noted business better than last year at this time. Recommends that the SPM quietly ascertain what price Government would take for its freight car fumigating plant at Guadalajara, which is not completed and is ineffectively conducted. Etc., etc
